Hymn: It seemed as if the Lord lived still

It seemed as if the Lord lived still,
expressed his will, the lame could walk,
and all assumed the blind would see,
the silent ones would start to talk!
Yet all they saw when looking round,
were Galilean fisher folk,
a zealot and some other men,
some hazarded it was a joke.

Verses 2-3 follow

Tune: BEFORE THE THRONE
Metre: DLM
